The Zuper Zealous Zoologist of Zany Zanes is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Zenthos with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 12.834 billion Zany Zanesians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pop. The average income tax rate is 62.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Zany Zanesian economy, worth 793 trillion Z's a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 61,811 Z's, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school bands practice by moonlight, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, religious turf wars have caused frustrated police to pray for divine intervention, and quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zany Zanes's national animal is the Zebra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Zen.

Zany Zanes is ranked 36,677th in the world and 15th in The Bar on the corner of every region for Most Stationary, with 1,239.2472624368 days.
